Just fine.
Pros:

Near CIQ.

Cons:

水管漏水,只能现金/Touchngo付钱。我在booking上付了钱但是还是在现场付了房费。
Water pipe is broken, water coming out from ground. Cash and Touchngo only. I was charged on booking, but I still got charged on site in the hotel.

Pros:

Lovely, friendly staff! It's a cheap and cheerful hotel, a short walk from the bus station and town. Clean room, with towels, toiletries and toothbrushes supplied. There was even a kettle with water, tea and coffee supplied.

Cons:

I don't like rooms without windows, but for the price paid, I think this is a good value hotel.

Not worth the amount stated in online websites
Pros:

The availability of room with attached bathroom is the main advantage.

Cons:

Plumbing was not working. Couldn't take shower due to defective plumbing. Bidet tap was not working. TV remotes were faulty too. Always double check their rooms before entering to stay.
